    So this is what i got upto today for about 2 hours. Final measure up and cut of tail end and weld in. Also as i am cutting off the full rear set and rebuild it with all the original goodies on it i have also built a jig to put all the neccesary parts back on with the new rear set frame on. Will be slick as.

    Took the rgv for a spin at the track yesterday. Quickly realised that I have a lot to learn about 2 strokes on the track!
    At least I managed to haze in the new tyres and confirm everything works on it without crashing....
    Now just need to dial in the suspension properly and change sprocket sizes and I am good to continue my education.

    Dropped off the RGV Tyga fairings to the spray painters for a professional job. I was going to do them myself but there's just no time & when all the moons align & the weathers right she makes me do another job. I'll post the pics when she's assembled. She's been registered for 3 months already & hasn't turned a wheel, well until today when we set the oil pump flow rates & gave her a bit of a run in on the stand under the brakes through the gears. It sounds so good, just like we dreamed but dreams rarely come true.

    Not today but yesterday - Finally knuckled down and replaced the rear brake drum, chain and sprockets on Jack to prep him for selling. Front brake pads and a final once-over with a torque wrench to go and he'll be up for sale!
